My friends really dont seem to get this e-cig/PV thing. Yeah, theyre really happy for me when I tell them its been almost two months since Ive smoked. I get to vape anywhere I want. And then they act as if Ive been hanging off the edge of a cliff the whole time, with my fingers digging into the soil, slipping gradually down into the abyss. Hold on they say, Im so proud of you, Im next with horrible long faces as if the next step will be off that cliff. But they dont seem to get that was not difficult- it doesnt hurt. Im a little lazy and dont like pain- if it was an effort, it wouldnt be working. I like playing with carts and batteries and all of the fiddly stuff.
Ok, I do think its amazing. I havent smoked for almost two months. I didnt plan on it and I didnt expect it. I also assumed that it would be painful. I had no intention of quitting smoking. The best I expected was to be able to cut down a little. Id hoped to decrease my chances of trundling around with emphysema and my oxygen tank in tow, or at least put it off for a few years
I got that in spades. I dont want to smoke. If I wanted to I would. Thats the part that is so amazing to me. I dont want it- and its also the part that people get the least. This is supposed to be miserable, and awful, and yet- for me- its not. When I talk about it, thats really what I want people to know. It sort of bugs me to get sympathy for something that wasnt an effort. I get the benefits, and the credit and it didnt hurt. Whats up with that? How do I communicate that essential part? It didn't hurt.
Yeah, it has its risks, and my experience isnt what everyone will have (though I do read a lot of posts where the experience was similar) but maybe I dont have to ponder what Im going to name the oxygen cart that I thought I was destined for.
